Thanks, Gene. I feel 100.
More of what was a great guitar company....
They did flames that looked like flames, built killer instruments later on in the company(I played some early ones that were merely so-so guitars), and were great guys to hang with. The NAMM show will be a lot less fun without those crazy bastards. Especially Phil, who is genuinely nuts in a very subtle way.
Ah, well, it was fun while it lasted.
